Biography[]
Battletrap arrived on Earth in 1994, alongside Scourge and Nightbird, looking for the Transwarp Key after museum intern Elena Wallace had just actived it. After making their to said museum on Ellis Island, Battletrap and his Terrorcon cohorts fought against the Autobots. As they were easily winning against the Autobots, Battletrap and the Terrorcons were able to steal the key from Elena and Noah Diaz, but just as they were about to finish off the Autobots, the Maximal Airazor arrived to fight them forcing them leave. After the fight, Battletrap witnessed Scourge contacting their master Unicron, who angrily informs them they only have half the Transwarp Key.
Battletrap and the other Terrorcons then headed to Peru to look for the other half of the key. They then followed the Autobots and gave them a race fight through the mountains. After Scourge found the other half, Battletrap and Nightbird retreated to the volcano next to the village, where Scourge reassembled the Transwarp Key, opening the portal above Earth, allowing Unicron to pass through. Soon after, Autobots and Maximals join forces to fight and defeat Terrorcons ad Predacons while Noah and Elena sneak in the vents to close the portal. Battletrap fights both Optimus and Primal, but they both managed to overpower him as Optimus cuts his hand, with Primal using his mace and crushing his head repeatedly, killing Battletrap instantly.
